GAINESVILLE, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MightyMeals today announced it has been ranked No. 2,348 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.

“Being named to the Inc. 5000 is an incredible milestone for MightyMeals and a reflection of how far we’ve come since starting this company in 2015,” said Stefano Marzano, CEO and Co-Founder of MightyMeals. “What started as an idea to make healthy eating easier has grown into something much bigger, and that growth would not be possible without our team, our customers, and the community that has supported us along the way. We’re proud of what we’ve built, but we’re even more excited about where MightyMeals is going next.”

This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
